Famous quotes containing the words blind and/or man:
“I would that I were an old beggar
Rolling a blind pearl eye,
For he cannot see my lady
Go gallivanting by.”

“The man who has stood on the Acropolis,
And looked down over Attica; or he
Who has sailed where picturesque Constantinople is,
Or seen Timbuctoo, or hath taken tea
In small-eyed Chinas crockery-ware metropolis,
Or sat amidst the bricks of Nineveh,
May not think much of Londons first appearance
But ask him what he thinks of it a year hence!”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
